This is at least the third blown deadline for the team tasked with destroying Syria’s chemical weapons. That team had pinned June 30th as the deadline to finish the job, and in order to meet that deadline, the materials used to make those weapons were supposed to have been out of the country’s borders by Sunday, April 27th. But on Sunday, Kaag said that between 7.5 and 8 percent of the the materials used to make chemical weapons are still in the country, “at one particular site.”

Earlier in April, there were reports that the Assad regime had launched a chlorine gas attack against opposition forces, although the regime, not surprisingly, blamed the attack on rebels. But chlorine isn’t one of the priority chemicals being destroyed by the mission, and that attack still hasn’t been confirmed.
